I have this case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811110008
I sanded off the GMC logo, but I need to find a way to refinish the plastic to make it gloss again. Is there any way to do this? Is there a compound I can get and use the buffer on my dremel?

What grit did you use to sand the plastic? If the scratches are deep, re sand it with 2000 grit and then buff it with Meguiar's PlastX. Works great on plastic headlights.
You can find it in almost any autoparts store (AutoZone, Pep Boys... etc). Walmart has it too. I would buff it by hand or with an orbital buffer. A Dremel spins a little too fast and can melt the plastic if you keep it in one spot too long.

Yep, just work it in firmly. Use a microfiber application pad.
